Deliverable D8.1.1 "Guide for SMEs" released
The first public release of the FLOSSMetrics Guide for SMEs has been released. From its executive summary: "FLOSS (free, libre, open source software) is one of the most important trends in IT since the advent of the PC and commodity software. However, despite the potential impact on European firms, its adoption is still hampered by limited knowledge, especially among SMEs that could potentially benefit the most from it. This document presents a set of guidelines and suggestions for the adoption of FLOSS within SMEs, using a ladder model that will guide companies from the initial selection and adoption of products for their IT infrastructure up to the creation of suitable business models based on FLOSS."
Comments and suggestions are welcome!
